Title: Method and device for automatic sleeve feed in roll-cutting machines of the backup roller type
Inventor: SMITH PHILIP
IPC: B65H19/30
Filed: 1990-05-26
Granted: 2000-01-25
Abstract: Process and device for automatic tube feed in back-up roll-type reel cutters. A wide web of paper or the like is wound off a wide roll in a take-off station. The wide web is divided lengthwise into at least two narrower partial webs in a cutting station. The narrower partial webs are wound on using winding tubes in two take-up stations each consisting of at least one take-up device which are arranged on either side of the back-up rolls, each of the adjacent partial webs being wound onto a different take-up station. The winding tubes are pushed into a feed device into a transfer position parallel to the back-up roll or the back-up rolls in a row one behind the other in association with the empty take-up devices, distributed from their transfer positions onto either side of the back-up roll(s) and transported into the tension positions on the take-up devices where they are tensioned so that they can later receive the end of the associated partial web. The winding tubes located in their take-up position and distributed on either side of the back-up roll(s) are taken from the transport device associated with the corresponding take-up device and raised or lowered into the tension position along an essentially rectilinear path The automatic feed of the winding tubes is thus appreciably improved, because the machinery is comparatively simple, despite the fact that a wide range of adjustments are dispensed with, resetting times are reduced and fewer service staff are required. 30

Granted: 2001-08-21
Abstract: Compaction of a soil surface is achieved by means of a machine (10) which has a movable, wheeled carriage (20) and an impact roller coupled resiliently to the carriage so as to move together with the carriage. The impact roller has one or more out-of-round compactor masses (12) designed to apply periodic impact blows to the soil surface (36). A soil working implement, in the form of an upright scraper blade (44) is carried by the carriage in a position trailing the impact roller. The function of the blade is to shape soil into the localised indentations (40) that are formed in the soil surface by the periodic impact blows applied by the compactor mass or masses. This smoothes out the soil surface for subsequent passes and reduces the shock loading on the tractive vehicle which pulls the carriage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing viscose pulp from lignocelluloses, such as hardwood, softwood or annual plants, in which process the lignocellulose is treated in a digester at first with saturated steam to prehydrolyze hemicelluloses and subsequently, without flashing, with hot black liquor (HSL) of a preceding sulfate pulp digestion as well as, if desired, under addition of fresh white liquor (WL) to neutralize the acidic reaction products formed, neutralization liquor (NL) thus being formed in the digester.        Upon addition of the amount of alkali required for delignification in the form of fresh white liquor (WL), if desired, in combination with a displacement of neutralization liquor (NL) and temperature adjustment, digestion then will take place with or without temperature gradient. When reaching the desired degree of digestion, digestion is terminated by displacement of the hot black liquor (HSL) with cold alkaline washing filtrate (WF), at the same time the pulp is freed from still adhering lignin degradation products, and the thus obtained pulp is discharged from the digester at a temperature of below 100°C.

Abstract: A direct contact water heater is provided having an upright, closed cylindrical tank formed from an outer tank shell. The outer tank shell has a top, a bottom and an external sidewall extending between the top and bottom to define an interior of the tank. A combustion chamber is centrally located within the interior of the tank. Combustible fuel is introduced downward from a combustion means into the combustion chamber and is ignited in the presence of air within the combustion chamber to create products of combustion. A plurality of spray nozzles are connected to a water supply to be heated. The spray nozzles are evenly spaced around and along the length of the combustion chamber for directing water from the water supply into the combustion chamber so that more uniform contact of the water is achieved with the products of combustion to facilitate heating of the water.

Abstract: A word processing object on a data processing system has a body consisting of text (and perhaps graphics).  The body has right and left side margins. A user can select a location in the body and provide an annotation in a side margin. The annotation is located adjacent to the selected body location. The annotation is associated with the selected body location so that subsequent editing or pagination of the body maintains the annotation adjacent to the selected body location.  The annotation can contain text and graphics.  The annotation can be edited. The annotation can be displayed and printed either by itself or in context with the body. The annotation can also be formatted to be displayed or printed in a form different from the body. The annotation can be made to appear in alternating side margins (for example, left margin, right margin, left margin, etc.) of successive pages of the body.

Granted: 2005-01-11
Abstract: An exhaust muffler support apparatus is disclosed including a bracket assembly for clamping at least one end of the muffler to an exhaust pipe and a vehicle mount for mounting the bracket assembly on the vehicle, such as a truck cab. The vehicle mount includes a mounting plate and a pair of tab members formed integral therewith and extending laterally thereto for supporting a mounting shaft. A support arm having one end pivotally attached to the mounting shaft and its other end pivotally connected by a connector shaft to the muffler bracket assembly enables the bracket assembly to pivot about the two axes of such shafts. A shock absorber sleeve of elastomer surrounds the mounting shaft to reduce vibration and noise and to extend the life of the muffler support apparatus. Each bracket assembly includes two pairs of clamp members which are urged together by threaded bolts. One pair of clamp members is of greater length than the other and they are assembled in a nested relationship to provide four contacts between the muffler connector and the exhaust pipe and spaced longitudinally along the exhaust pipe for a stronger connection.
